Today, Billy Corgan, the frontman of the two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning iconic rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, has utilized cutting-edge AI tools to share a message with his fans. Originally recorded in English and translated via AI into seven different languages (Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Greek, and Japanese), he expresses the band’s excitement for their fans around the world to hear their brand new album Aghori Mhori Mei. Powered by Curious Refuge, the heartfelt message comes amidst a run of highly successful international tour dates throughout 2024. Listen to Corgan’s messages HERE and listen to Aghori Mhori Mei HERE.

“Aghori Mhori Mei is a return to our roots,” Corgan shares. “Billy, Jimmy, and James getting back to the old-school guitar style that we’re known for. We had a lot of fun making this record and we really want to share it with you.” 

The Smashing Pumpkins’ thirteenth collection to date, Aghori Mhori Mei is a bruising and shadowy return to form from original Smashing Pumpkins members Jimmy Chamberlin, James Iha, and Billy Corgan. The new album harkens back to the band’s early 90’s canon; where guitars, bass, drums, and spiking vocals ruled, and continues the prolific hot streak frontman Billy Corgan kicked off a decade ago. The band completed the recording of Aghori Mhori Mei amidst an expansive international touring schedule across the last few years. The album has garnered significant praise worldwide, reaching Top 10 on Spotify’s US and Global Album Debut Charts, while the album’s single “Sighommi” was the #1 most-added track across the US at both Alternative and Rock Radio.

The band is currently trekking across North America with an expansive run of stadium performances with Green Day as part of The Saviors Tour while also performing solo arena dates nationwide through September. Earlier this summer, the band trotted across Europe with a combination of arena and headline festival dates and later this fall, the band’s upcoming multi-city Latin American Fall tour will see the band play to their fans across South and Latin America for the first time in nearly a decade. 

Now, the band will bring Aghori Mhori Mei to the stage across the entirety of 2024.
